I'm a home-care aide living in Saint Petersburg. During the last storm water started coming through the ceiling in 2 places, and the living room is no longer usable. A roofer quoted $1,350, which isn't something I can pay.
The good news: a local hardware store has donated the corrugated iron sheets and timber. What I don't have is people to do the work. I'm looking for anyone handy who can help over one long weekend.
Experience helps, but it isn't essential - I'll have a licensed roofer supervising for safety. All you need is work boots and a hat. I'll provide lunch, water and lots of thanks.
The work will be done on the ground and roof with proper harnesses. If you can only help for a few hours, that's welcome too.
Thank you so much.

Rooting for you, Petro. Hope this works out for you. My husband and I read this together. Take care.
I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Bengaluru.
So sorry you're going through this, Petro. Shared this with my family. Don't give up.

good luck, Petro. Shared this with my family. After 28 years in public service I know how hard it's to ask for anything.

Best of luck. Hope you get there. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
Hope you get there. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Blessings.
